"I was 13 when I decided I wanted to do in life was travel and have adventures, be of some use to other people, and have a family. Life worked out pretty much as I hoped."Born into middle-class poverty in the 1920s, David Scott was on course for a corporate career until his uncle, Father Gerard Tucker, invited him to become part of The Brotherhood of St. Laurence. Scott went on to become the director of the Brotherhood turning it into the most significant agency for social welfare in Australia. He also formed Community Aid Abroad (now Oxfam) and played a leading role in galvanizing support for the East Timorese people when Indonesia invaded. "Always Say Yes "follows Scott's life and accomplishments and celebrates one of the giants of Australian social policy.
